Terrible news! My deskmate's first chapter is gone!

The black tower ball on the ground naturally became invisible after the countdown ended, and Chen Xi had already picked it up.

The sound of countless footsteps grew closer and closer.

These figures appeared to be of varying heights and builds from a distance, but Chen Xi was able to see their true appearances only after they had come a sufficient distance away.

It turns out that these figures are not different in height or weight, but rather different species, which is why they have this difference in height.

These surrounding creatures weren't all human; some were animals as well.

They included tigers, lions, leopards, humans, orangutans, hippos, and so on. There were no particularly rare animals; they were all species that can be seen in zoos.

They all have a black tower brand on their foreheads.

If you look closely, you'll find that these black tower markings are not all the same.

The Black Tower branding marks are all shaped like an isosceles triangle, but some have one horizontal bar inside, while others have two, like the badges of elementary school students who are cadres.

Judging from the position, there should be a maximum of three horizontal bars.

Because the surrounding light was too low, Chen Xi initially used his eyes to judge the height, which is how he came to know his height and weight.

"What do I do, boss?!"

Yang Wei quickly took a few steps back, standing back to back with Chen Xi.

His current physical condition is at the peak of Stage I, which is enough to dominate the zoo, but the people and animals in front of him are obviously not ordinary.

"Don't rush, is there anything on their heads?"

Chen Xi said calmly, "This kind of voice gives people a sense of security."

Neither of them are ordinary people now. As their strength increases, their threshold for fear also increases, so they won't be afraid even if a tiger is standing in front of them.

But this refers to normal tigers, excluding those with the Black Tower mark on their foreheads!

Chen Xi now understands.

The long-haired fake man's final outburst had a rallying effect similar to a bugle call.

Judging from the other party's previous behavior.

The extraordinary characteristic of the second stage, Hair Demon, is the ability to produce a number of sounds equal to the number of hairs on one's head, which can be simply understood as countless.

Therefore, it is natural that a horn can be sounded to gather the Ta'nu.

The "Magic Hair" is a special trait, not an identity. Chen Xi didn't know what the upgraded identity of the poet was called, but both of them possessed versatile special traits.

This is their commonality.

"There are no words."

"These Tanu have nothing on their heads."

Chen Xi nodded solemnly.

If these Tanu had writing on their heads, we could at least tell what their abilities were. Now that they have nothing, it's troublesome!

In that instant, Chen Xi realized a very serious problem.

Or rather, a flaw, a flaw he has been trying to avoid.

That's the quantity.

Whether it's equality for all, the Black Tower ball, or the newly summoned vampire, which is also known as the summoning of the ancestor.

These are all single-target attack capabilities.

He had no way to deal with the large number of enemies.

At this point, it's too late to summon Yaozu; even if Yaozu were present, it might not be of any use.

After killing the long-haired fake man, Chen Xi glanced at the Black Tower Stone he was carrying, which was now 80% corrupted!

As a Phase II, it possesses a unique characteristic similar to that of a summoned beast.

Their duration typically varies in three ways.

One option is a buyout-like arrangement, where one pays a large amount of psychic energy and bears the curse of identity in exchange for a fixed summoning duration.

Secondly, the time is calculated from the moment it is summoned, during which mental energy is constantly lost and identity curses are endured, so the summoning time is usually longer, truly ensuring that not a single second is wasted.

The third option is a combination of the first two, which not only requires paying a price upfront, but also requires enduring the psychic power needed to maintain the summoning and the identity curse that one constantly suffers.

Although the third option comes at the highest cost, it is also the strongest.

Li Yaozu was summoned using the third method, which is why he is very strong.

Although the total playing time was not long, the cost was considerable.

If the long-haired imposter hadn't been weakened by the Black Tower sphere, then even if Li Yaozu corrupted all the remaining Black Tower stones, he probably still wouldn't be able to kill his opponent.

If they insist on killing him by force, Chen Xi will have to bear the curse himself.

As a secondary identity, Fu Di Mo has no mission, but is cursed.

The price was terrible: the body was permanently petrified and turned into a sculpture, but self-awareness was retained.

It's like being a person in a vegetative state who is conscious but will never wake up, and all they can feel and see is the boundless darkness around them.

If no one breaks this statue, we will be plunged into the most terrible and desperate eternal night!

Yaozu has no weaknesses, but he does have a weakness: he lacks area-of-effect (AOE) abilities and cannot clear the field.

Even if he could kill all the Ta'nu one by one with the Yaozu Sword, it would take him a very long time.

After all, these Ta'nu weren't just standing there waiting to be killed.

In addition, the average strength of the Tanu is 2.5, and there may even be some that can rival Yaozu, after all, Chen Xi's current progress is only about 20% of Tier II.

Although I killed the long-haired fake man, I didn't gain experience points at Tier II, so I couldn't gain a huge amount of experience points.

However, if the "save" progress of the fake man is higher, Chen Xi's own progress will indeed increase more, but the increase will not be significant.

"Boss, think of something quick!!!"

"I don't want next month's salary!!!"

Chen Xi's few seconds of silence felt like centuries to Yang Wei.

He asked again in an extremely anxious voice.

Whoosh!

Chen Xi made his move the moment Yang Wei finished speaking.

Chen Xi did not answer, but instead showed his support through his actions.

A dagger flew suddenly and accurately toward a hippopotamus.

Unlike before, this attack was accompanied by a sonic boom.

This is a signal that the speed has reached the speed of sound!

As Chen Xi's progress increased, his physical abilities improved further, and under the effect of eternal sleep, this improvement in physical abilities would be three times greater than normal.

A dagger thrown in this state would reach a speed of approximately 340 meters per second, which is the speed of sound.

In Chen Xi's mind, the hippo was the slowest-moving of the Tanuri surrounding him.

Furthermore, the black tower brand on its head only has one horizontal bar, which should mean it is the weakest.

Pfft!

The result was terrifyingly smooth; the hippo was killed instantly after being hit in the forehead by Chen Xi!

The process was smooth without any twists or turns.

"The boss is awesome!"

Yang Wei's eyes lit up, as if he could see a bright future.

Soon, an ostrich filled the hippopotamus's spot.

Furthermore, all the other Tanuki did not react at all, just like Deadpool.

Do these guys even have thoughts?

Tanu's indifference made Chen Xi think instinctively, but now was not the time to worry about it.

This success also gave Chen Xi a glimmer of hope.

While not absolute, this attack gave him a rough idea.

Those with extraordinary abilities progress rapidly.

The fake character is stronger at the same level because the potential is higher, provided they have a legitimate identity.

The Taurus likely wins through sheer numbers, as they are the weakest individually.

Without saying a word, Chen Xi used his foot to flick a stone about the size of a third of a palm into his hand like a soccer ball.

Immediately, a "Little Li Flying Stone" was thrown at a short, ugly, and poor-looking man with two horizontal lines on his head.

This attack was a test; in Chen Xi's mind, the man should be stronger.

As expected, the man was indeed stronger.

Unlike the previous hippopotamus, he wasn't killed outright. Instead, he smashed the stone that Chen Xi threw at high speed with a single "short punch".

The man was also injured, but not seriously; his right fist, which shattered the stone, left black blood.

Judging from the color of the blood, it can no longer be considered human.

Damn!

Chen Xi's expression remained unchanged, but he cursed inwardly.

Judging from this test, the short, ugly, and poor man was only slightly weaker than himself.

There were about 22 Tanu who surrounded them, 6 of whom were guarded by two horizontal bars.

Leaving aside the Tanukni, which is still on its way.

If these two bar-bound trolls are all about as strong as the short, ugly, and poor man, he has no way of fighting his way out!
